4.11 is mature and fast(est).

SlipAway172 02-26-2005 03:43 PM
would 5.3 be a good choice?

SlipAway172 02-26-2005 03:44 PM
just noticed......... 4.11 IS the latest..................... guess i will go with that one.............

i was looking it in order of numbers and not release dates

4.11 being fastest is debatable. It's probably fastest on a single CPU system, but on a SMP box (or a HTT P4) 5.3 will probably be faster.

Regardless though, NetBSD 2.0 is faster than both at just about everything, and scales better as well.

Its built based around the idea of perfection and following strict rules conering code and release.
